So only reward players capturing objectives and continue to ignore any kind of defensive effort?

that’s exactly what was missing from WvW :/

You’re wasting time defending btw.

The time it takes to defend is equivalent to taking 2-3 objectives, and EotM promotes objective taking, some reward 30pts on taking.

yes, that’s the problem, rewarding mindless objectives trains rather than actual gameplay.

and your suggestion would only make it worse.
